Mice will shy away from your van if you set several bowls of ammonia insde
on the floor and close all the windows. This of course is only if the van
is not being used.  The fumes from the ammonia have the same effect on
rodents as people and they would rather not stay.  Check the bowls often to
make sure the ammonia hasn't evaporated. completely.  This fix also works
if you have had a visitor that shall we say - expired before checking out.
It will remove the odor of the dearly departed as well as cigarette smoke,
old socks, that fogotten onion in the fridge, etc.  When your ready to hit
the road again, remove the bowls and air our for about an hour.  The
ammonia smell will be gone.
